Synthetic peptides are getting some serious hype, from fitness influencers on your FYP to people seeking new options for chronic conditions. And while the human body already makes peptides, like insulin and the hormone oxytocin, most of the viral synthetic peptides are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Scientists say that raises some big concerns about safety and efficacy. So ahead of this week's FDA meeting to discuss seven commonly used peptides, we get into the science with health reporter Sarah Boden.Interested in more science behind health trends?

Are you a fan of powerful red wines like Châteauneuf-du-Pape but don't love the price tag? Then Gigondas may be the wine you've been waiting for. Gigondas is often called the “little brother” of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and shares many of the same characteristics including hailing from the southern Rhône in France and containing the same GSM or Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes in its blend. And while it is a powerful wine that is the perfect companion to steak frites, it is also extremely balanced and elegant. We'll explore the history and techniques behind this fabulous wine, but more importantly, we'll give you our honest review of two Gigondas wines to let you know if either or both are worth your hard-earned money. And as we do every week, we'll round out our conversation with some “wine in the news this week” fun as well as random side conversations like the names of the two main characters in Revenue of the Nerds.

DOUBLE THE GRU, DOUBLE THE MINIONS! With Minions & Monsters and the next Minions adventure on the horizon, Roxy Striar & John Humphrey react to Despicable Me 3 (2017) — Illumination's hilarious sequel that introduces Gru's long-lost twin brother, Dru, while bringing back everyone's favorite yellow troublemakers. From Balthazar Bratt's over-the-top '80s obsession and the Minions' prison break to Dru's dream of becoming a supervillain and Agnes' quest to find a real unicorn, this Despicable Me 3 reaction revisits one of Illumination's biggest animated hits. -- In this Despicable Me 3 reaction, animated movie reaction, and review, Roxy & John reunite with Gru and his newly discovered twin brother Dru, both voiced by Steve Carell (The Office, The 40-Year-Old Virgin), as the brothers navigate family, redemption, and one last heist together. They also follow Lucy Wilde, voiced by Kristen Wiig (Bridesmaids, Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar), as she embraces life as a mother, while facing off against the unforgettable former child star turned supervillain Balthazar Bratt, voiced by Trey Parker (South Park, Team America: World Police). The film also features Miranda Cosgrove (iCarly, School of Rock) as Margo, Dana Gaier (Despicable Me franchise) as Edith, Nev Scharrel as Agnes, and Steve Coogan (Alan Partridge, Night at the Museum) as Silas Ramsbottom. Featuring memorable moments like the Minions' rebellion and prison escape, Bratt's retro dance battles and giant robot showdown, Gru and Dru's sibling adventures, Agnes' search for a unicorn, and a soundtrack filled with music from Pharrell Williams (Happy, Despicable Me), Despicable Me 3 delivers the heart, humor, and chaotic fun that made the franchise a global phenomenon. Directed by Pierre Coffin (Minions, Despicable Me 2) and Kyle Balda (Minions: The Rise of Gru, The Lorax), the film continues Illumination's beloved series as fans look ahead to the next chapter of the Minions saga.

Chuck Todd reacts to Tuesday's elections and what the fallout means for both parties. Then he discusses the latest on the US-Iran deal and why it's already a failure for the Trump administration, and why the Kennedy Center and White House ballroom drama signals the beginning of the end for the Trump era. Plus, he discusses the most underreported story of the week.Then historian Dominic Erdozain — author of To Love a Country — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a deeply thoughtful conversation about the difference between Americanism and the actual promise of America, and what it means to love a country honestly rather than mythologically. Erdozain argues that Joe Biden's "this is not who we are" framing of Trump-era nationalism was simply not accurate — the darker currents in American life are very much part of who we've always been, and pretending otherwise makes them harder to confront. He pushes back hard on the version of American exceptionalism that requires looking down on others, noting that while America was a genuine pioneer of democracy, it was painfully slow on feminism and racial equality, and that democracy itself can become a hollow shell for something tyrannical when it's imposed rather than consented to. Erdozain offers a fascinating historical excavation of how the South's distinct identity was forged by the Civil War, why that war seeded the worst possible conditions for Black freedom, and how Germany managed to avoid the "lost cause" mythology that still poisons American politics. He even takes aim at the Gettysburg Address — arguing its soaring language was later weaponized to justify wars it was never meant to bless, and that the enduring American myth that unity comes through blood and conflict is a dangerous one.The conversation broadens into a sweeping meditation on patriotism, war, and historical memory. Erdozain observes that today's reviled "elites" are essentially the "Yankees" of the 19th century in the Southern imagination, that the greatest war hawks tend to be people who never actually fought, and that America still hasn't reckoned with how profoundly 9/11 changed its society — pointing out that the people who championed the Iraq war have never been ostracized for it. He reflects on John F. Kennedy's hard-won realization that weapons alone were never the true guarantor of American security and Kennedy's deliberate effort to dampen American hatred of the Soviets, contrasts that with the "peace through strength" mantra of the Reagan era, and warns about the very real danger of a proxy conflict spiraling out of Ukraine. Erdozain argues that the "city on a hill" mentality, however flattering, inevitably curdles into nationalism — and that whenever a country fully embraces nationalism, someone always loses their freedom. But his book isn't a counsel of despair: he makes the case that America's singular ability to assimilate immigrants is one of its true superpowers, and that genuine patriotism means challenging the country to actually live up to the ideals it committed to paper. His closing pitch for why both a liberal and a conservative should read the book is the heart of the whole conversation — loving a country, like loving a person, means holding it to its highest self rather than excusing its worst instincts.Finally, Chuck gives his Top 5 most overlooked races and then, in "Ask Chuck", he answers your questions about the U.S.-Iran situation and sports playoff systems.

Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ In this highly anticipated movie review and reaction, Greg and Jackie conquer a hilarious rewatch of David Zucker's beloved parody masterpiece, checking out how it brilliantly skewers the biggest box-office thrillers of its time. We unpack the incredible comedic timing and performances of the massive ensemble cast, featuring Anna Faris (The House Bunny, Mom) returning as the delightfully oblivious Cindy Campbell, Regina Hall (Girls Trip, The Hate U Give) as the absolutely chaotic Brenda Meeks, and Charlie Sheen (Two and a Half Men, Platoon) playing Tom Logan. We also break down the unforgettable appearances from major stars and comedy icons, including Simon Rex (Red Rocket, Dirt) as George Logan, Anthony Anderson (Black-ish, Hustle & Flow) as Mahalik, Kevin Hart (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Central Intelligence) as CJ, Leslie Nielsen (The Naked Gun, Airplane!) delivering pure legendary status as President Harris, and Marni Eng as Tabitha, the iconic parody version of Samara Morgan from The Ring. Our hosts react to every single iconic visual gag, legendary punchline, and unhinged pop-culture reference this spoof has to offer. We break down the absolute comedy gold of the opening scene featuring Pamela Anderson & Jenny McCarthy mockingly setting up the cursed videotape curse, the hilariously aggressive rap battle sequence featuring Kevin Hart and Anthony Anderson, and the brilliant spoofing of Signs with massive crop circle layouts shaped like arrow indicators. From Leslie Nielsen's completely chaotic alien-fighting presidential address to the ridiculous, slapstick funeral wake fight where Brenda gets violently disassembled, Greg & Jackie dive into why this specific entry remains an absolute high-point for the entire franchise.
